I think most of the bikes have issues running in traffic in regards with overheating the front tyres ()
Afterwards in post race interviews plenty of riders like Fabio mention tyre() pressures going thru the roof.
Honda boys crying foul over the antique Michelins, Suzuki struggling. Hearing track temps could hit 70c!Well that was quite a nerve wracking Q1 and Q2 sooo many slides by all the riders
Fabio did a great job for pole his was the most stable looking machine all weekend so far.
Well done to the Pramac team 2nd and 3rd on the grid.
I like the layout of this track its fast flowing and wide.
Ducati won the first race (granted it was last years bike!) of the season, I wouldn't write them off just yet. IMHO I would wait until they get back to the European tracks to draw any real conclusions about who is going to be in the hunt.In preseason Ducati, Suzuki & Honda looked like the teams to beat. What happened? Ducati & Suzuki are way off pace a honda is a death trap to ride fast
Interesting to see kTM getting another podium.Ducati won the first race (granted it was last years bike!) of the season, I wouldn't write them off just yet. IMHO I would wait until they get back to the European tracks to draw any real conclusions about who is going to be in the hunt.
hopefully it will pass soon,that was a wicked crash,the outcome could have been far worse.Bad news for Marquez. The writing is on the wall. Might be time to walk away while you still have most of your health.
Marquez has suffered new diplopia episode after Indonesia warm up crash
The eight-times World Champion has suffered a new episode of diplopia after the Indonesian Grand Prix.www.visordown.com
It's like the third or fourth time he's had it. Textbook Cumulative Trauma.hopefully it will pass soon,that was a wicked crash,the outcome could have been far worse.
He's a great rider but not the GOAT. That's why he'll be back. But I think he's missed his chance. If he is out half of this year. Even if he comes back he'll be a fool to ride that Honda fast.Marquez has nothing left to prove. IMO he should walk away now, there is a big difference between having a bum arm/shoulder for the rest of your life (hopefully 50+ years) or having double vision. I know they have ruled out TBI for the time being but as many shots as he has taken to the head it has got be something to think about. He is still the GOAT, I am a Rossi fan but Marquez like Casey Stoner on the Ducati took something that nobody was able to ride and make a winner out of it.
